The Taloned One ogles white pride wenches, welcomes an infamous mining titan to town, and takes another swipe at illegal-immigrant-bashing car king Rusty Childress

The Nimrods at Newsaxon.com recently blocked New Times from accessing their site after The Bird's blogging bro, Feathered Bastard, wrote about them, but that's why the Good Lord made proxy servers, boys and girls, allowing us to do an end-run around their restrictions. Plus, why do the Newsaxonites care? This rascally rooster thought they were proud of their cretinous creed.

A HOLE

Speaking of authoritarian asswipes, here's one who appears even worse than all the neo-Nazi swill mentioned above: Richard Adkerson. Never heard of him? Don't worry, neither had this mallard 'til a pal forwarded this eco-friendly avian some background info on Adkerson, CEO of Freeport-McMoRan Copper and Gold Inc., one of the largest mining companies in the world, and one of the most notorious in terms of environmental damage and supporting human rights abuses abroad.

Fred Harper

Adkerson's company recently dug up $26 billion to acquire Zona-based Phelps Dodge Inc., making the resulting goliath the biggest publicly held mining company on the planet. As a result, Freeport's relocating its HQ from New Orleans to P-town, specifically to (soon-to-be renamed) Phelps Dodge Building at One North Central Avenue. Adkerson himself, the Dark Prince of Dirt-diggin', is movin' caboodle 'n' kit to the PHX to oversee the empire. Your guess as to whether the exec eventually lands in Scottsdale, or more appropriately, Parasite Valley.

Where Adkerson makes his nest may be of importance to those in his homeowners association. See, the modern-day Crassus' digs in the Big Easy have been picketed in the past by pissed-off protesters rankled by alleged abuses at Freeport's cornerstone operation, the Grasberg mine complex. High in the mountains of Papua, Indonesia, the operation is epic in avarice and size. It's the largest gold mine on Earth, containing an estimated reserve of 46 million ounces of the precious metal. It's also the world's third-largest copper mine. That's a Grand Canyon of pennies and pile of Krugerrands higher than Squaw Peak.

To lay hands on that fortune, Grasberg's corporate masters have seen to the excavation of nearly a billion tons of earth in the past 30 years. The gaping maw left behind can be seen from space, where it was once mistaken for Rosie ODonnell's ravenous pie-hole. Kidding aside, just Google "Grasberg mine," and you'll find NASA photos online detailing the cavernous sore.

Critics claim Freeport's allowed the Grasberg mine to devastate what was recently an unspoiled river system with its acidic mine waste. Bugging activists more are reports that Freeport paid millions of dollars to Indonesian government security forces, which have a record of extrajudicial killings and other abuses of the native Papua population. Indonesia assumed control of Papua in the '60s, and its tactics have been condemned by groups like the West Papua Action Network, (see www.westpapua.ca), and the West Papua Solidarity group, the latter of which picketed Adkerson's N'awlins abode two years go.

Roger Featherstone, a southern Arizona representative of Earthworks, a Washington, D.C.-based mining watchdog group, says it's not his org's style to picket a mining exec's home. But Featherstone (no relation to this avian) and other environmentalists told New Times they'll keep watch on Adkerson and his company, 'cause Freeport now owns former Phelps Dodge mines in Arizona and New Mexico.

Grasberg's "a pretty glaring example of what not to do when operating a major mine," according to Featherstone. The hope is that Freeport won't import any of its bad practices to the American Southwest.

Freeport officials rebuffed requests for an interview. However, the company has made public gestures toward the criticisms, spending millions on environmental cleanup programs and hiring an independent audit in 2003 to examine Papua's human rights situation.

Adkerson, a pedigreed graduate of the Harvard Business School, can be seen in a short video on Freeport's Web site, www.fcx.com, crowing about the Phelps takeover. He states with a straight face, "Our company will continue to operate in an environmentally sensitive manner."

State Mine Inspector Joe Hart says Freeport will be required to pay 100 percent of the cleanup costs of any environmental damage from local mines. Hart asserts that "the days of environmental rape and pillage are over in America." Maybe so, but the moral outrage over the Indonesia mine will and should continue. Doofus denizens of these United States often puzzle over why the rest of the world hates our friggin' guts. Well, here's a perfect example. Ever heard of the ugly American?

RUSTY´S RAGE

Will the real Rusty Childress please stand up, please stand up? Check this week's letters page for a measured response from the Kia peddler to this immigration-lovin' egret's report on the Thump-day prejudice parties he holds at his PHX automall ("Bigot Bash," April 19, 2007). In the missive, Rusty trumpets "the rule of law" and "the First Amendment," as if the rich wingnut actually understood what those terms meant.

See, Rusty's true hue was revealed last week, when New Times circulation director Jack Erickson got a call from a manager over at Childress Kia, asking that Erickson fetch New Times' rack there. Apparently, Childress and his lackeys were all p.o.'d about The Bird infiltrating Childress' KKK-like confabs. So Erickson heads down to the dealership, and asks this same manager for the steel newspaper stand.

"Yeah, other people are a problem, but don't forget that the sense of entitlement that these resource-sucking immigrants have is the EXACT SAME as those of conservatives, who only have what, two or three generations of regression before their families were in the same situation--coming to America for free handouts.

Comment by Junior, Jr. � May 10, 2007 @ 12:23AM"

Here's a prime example of hater mentality and dishonesty. Hey, "Junior," what "handouts" did German immigrants come here seeking? Those before me in my family did not come here seeking "free handouts," lazy. Is "Junior, Jr." a shortcut for Jesus "Junior" Gomez Hernandez, "Jr.," by any chance?

I guess when you have a low IQ, little ambition, and next to zero analytic capabilities, what else is there to do but embrace "multi-culturism?"

It must suck being on the low-end of the bell curve, haters. No, not the "Neo-Nazis" the haters are hissing at like scared little girls. I'm referring to the freak who wrote this silly column, and the freaks who support it.

Here's a clue, haters, even the Negros you worship hate you. EVERYBODY hates the reds, as surely that's what you are - communist dreamers - still hanging on in 2007. Yeah the USSR was SUCH a success - only 30-80 million dead.

What does it feel like to be cowardly and bloodthirsty at the same time, haters? How does it feel that NO ONE will accept you?

How does it feel that you're stupid or evil enough to embrace the WORST and most bloodthisty political philosophy of all time? Not only that, but the women in your "movement" are ugly.

It must suck being a hater. I mean, it must really, REALLY suck being a hater.

Way to use New Saxon as a way to bolster your, I'm sure, lousy click through rate, hater.

Hows that working out for you? Have you broken into the top 1,000,000,000,000 websites on Alexa yet?

Are you AT LEAST getting a B+ from your Jewish Professor in your Journalism 101 class? Oh, do YOU have about, I'm guessing, 5,000 members by now?

The man who aspired to be to America what Gavrillo Princip wasto Serbia has died. David Lane, 68, died in his sleep at the federalprison at Terre Haute, Indiana, reportedly of cancer, while servinga life term for conspiracy in the death of Denver talk-show-host AlanBerg. Berg, the innovator of the profane and insult variety of radiobroadcasting, had targeted white people for vicious slurs. Lane drove the getaway car, as Berg was gunned down in the driveway of his residence, but no one has ever been convicted in the murder.

Lane had become a cult-hero of sorts to those chafed by theobnoxiousness of the Israeli Lobby, of which Berg was a member.Lane never apologized or recanted, but kept insisting that assassinationwas justified political-warfare. Lane was just as intolerant of those who ruled out murder-tactics as he had been of Berg. Lane had issued an appeal for Travis Golie, 23, editor of the Skinhead website,to be assassinated, because Golie refused to endorse murder. Lanecalled him "Travesty" Golie, insisting that only those in jail had credibility.

Lane had published Skinhead-writer, Andrew Pearson, 21, on his marked-for-death list, for urging Skinheads "to use the system to change the system." Lane conveyed his thoughts through April Gaede, the mother of a teenage-singing-duo, who had been managed byKevin Strom, currently imprisoned for child-molestation. Billy Roper,also, published Lane's threats, in which Roper added that Skinheads were "mentally ill." Neither Golie nor Pearson was harmed and both said that they had no fear. Golie called Lane a "senile, old man."

Princip, a member of the underground "Black Hand", had set off World War I, by assassinating Franz Ferdinand, heir to the throne of Austria-Hungary. He is regarded as a hero in Serbia, for helping hiscountry gain independence. Lane, a member of the underground "Order", had believed that he, too, would ignite a war. He had stated that he had come out of retirement in order to eradicate anyone who used the law. "We shall make certain that none of these venomous creatures pollute [sic] the earth with either words or their breath, ever again," he wrote.

A Texas prisoner had demanded to be placed on Lane's assassination list, in protest. Skinhead Christopher Smith, 23, told Lane to "add me to your list to be killed, because I back my blood. Travis is being heard, because he teaches how we can be effective, without necessarilywinding up in jail. I am behind prison walls, myself, but, when I get out,I plan to Take Travis' advice, turning my thoughts into positive action."Josh Cupples, 19, an Iowa prisoner, even waxed poetic: "I write this in memory of you, David Lane. Your threats and slurs were all so lame. "

Gabe Carafa, 21, a disciple of the bearded, long-haired Lane, had written toPearson, just before being jailed on a bomb-plot. "He had asked me to become a part and had even listed me as a part. I asked to be taken off," Pearson stressed. "Carafa will spend the next decade in prison, sitting on the sidelines. Such a waste of youth. This is why I believe that organized Skinheads are the best thing that could have happened to America and the Nationalist movement," Pearson observed. "Skinhead-of-the-Year" Jason Henry, 26, renounced Lane's plot as "nuts."

Fuck you, You jew loving piece of shit, Where do you get off, insulting people because our Opinion is better than yours, Hopefully you will be Murdered brutally,If your White, Your a fucking traitor, how could you support that, which wishes to destroy your race, If your not white, Your time will come, Enemy scumWPWW1488

Oh look -- an "alternative" news paper that publishes the lies of the Jew. Who would have thought that combination would come together? I mean, what's the "alternative" to the Jewish lies of the mainstream press except, well, those amplified ten times over by some wanna be college student or emotionally underdeveloped adult?

I am a member of Newsaxon, and i don't care one bit about hitler, or National socialism, and it wasn't in the terms of agreement that i had to be when i joined. Do you realize there are Racially and religious exclusive community sites for Jews and blacks, Aboriginals, cathlics, muslims? well i'm sure you don't really care as it doesn't sell papers, or grab the attention of soft-minded believers in your writing and lovers of a catchy head-line.

Articles such as the one you wrote really do make me lose faith in the status-quo, and makes what you call misguided "femmy nazis" seem like the right choice for me. I might not be a 'nazi' now, but maybe oneday when i learn more, but onething i'll never be is a scum dwelling bottom feeder anti-white, hater like you. You may not like or find tastefull what others say or believe, but freedom of speech is more importent than your feelings. I shall never bend over for you. may new-saxon and every other site live long and prosperous. femmy nazis? better than a faggy neo-communist.

That was fun, and definitely true, the bit about the bird feeder--but who's going to harvest the birdseed?

I don't like the fact that resources that I or my family could be using are used by others--but wait, even though I was born here, as were both of my parents and their parents, and I pay taxes, I'm not entitled to the same rights as my fellow Americans because of ...

Right to privacy? Yeah right, not when your skin is a different color in a small town. People are more up in your business than guns are in the hands of local teens. And don't go somewhere dressed in a nice shirt and tie, or smile at the wrong person.

Yeah, other people are a problem, but don't forget that the sense of entitlement that these resource-sucking immigrants have is the EXACT SAME as those of conservatives, who only have what, two or three generations of regression before their families were in the same situation--coming to America for free handouts.

Get a life you fuckin loser. Seriously. I HAVE heard of the "Ugly American" and it's you. Enough of the NAZI, KKK rhetoric. That's some serious shit to accuse, and for you to flippantly smear some dude like that in your rag is flat fuckin bullshit. If you don't like what he has to say, don't listen, but mind your own business. And I recommend you keep your head on a swivel if you're going to keep that kind of crap up.

I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and filled it with seed. Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food. But then the birds started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table, and next to the barbecue. Then came the poop. It was everywhere: on the patio tile, the chairs, the table...everywhere. Then some of the birds turned mean: They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket. And others birds were boisterous and loud: They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night and demanded that I fill it when it got low on food. After a while, I couldn\'t even sit on my own back porch anymore. I took down the bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the patio. Soon, the back yard was like it used to be...quiet, serene and no one demanding their rights to a free meal. Now lets see...our government gives out free food, subsidized housing, free medical care, free education and allows anyone born here to be a automatic citizen. Then the illegals came by the tens of thousands. Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services; small apartments are housing 5 families: you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor: your child\'s 2nd grade class is behind other schools because over half the class doesn\'t speak English: Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box; I have to press \"one\" to hear my bank talk to me in English, and people waving flags other than \"Old Glory\" are squawking and screaming in the streets, demanding more rights and free liberties. Maybe it\'s time for the government to take down the bird feeder.
